What transfer classes should I take at Saddleback College for National University?

I'm planning to transfer from Saddleback College to National University. Does anyone have advice on which classes I should prioritize to make sure they transfer efficiently? I want to make sure I meet all the requirements.

In transferring from Saddleback College to National University, there are a few steps you can take to make sure your credits will be maximized. Your first step should always be to connect with an academic counselor or transfer advisor at both your current school and the school you wish to transfer to. These officials will have the most up-to-date information on course equivalencies and transfer requirements.

Secondly, National University has something called "Articulation Agreements" with a number of community colleges. They outline what courses at your current school will meet the requirements for your intended major at National University. You can check if Saddleback College has an articulation agreement with National University, and see what courses are explicitly outlined.

Another resource that might be of use is assist.org, which is a student-transfer information system that shows how course credits earned at a California Community College can be applied to National University.

Remember, it's important not just to look at the necessary credits to graduate, but also to build a strong foundation of prerequisites for your intended major. This means that you may need to take certain courses beyond just the general education requirements.

Moreover, if National University requires specific high school subject requirements that you did not meet in high school, you may have to complete equivalent college courses before transferring.

The process of transferring can seem complex, but the support and tools available can make it significantly easier for you. Just take it one step at a time, and make sure to confer with an academic advisor before making definitive decisions.
